Evolution - Poem by Carsten Thomsen

Autoplay next video

The firefly -with the hermit crab a close second appears to me as the pinnacle of evolution with man kind stuck somewhere between hyena and leech And I wonder when and how it all happened When these P.hd.’s of science and walking armors sitting in the darkness on a twig above/ in a river of primal ooze realized life being so short to find reason in madness YOU must watch your own sorry ass and bring your own light into the darkness

My own home town's motto is 'Out of darkeness cometh light', and this poem qualifies it. I liked the image of man being somewhere between hyena and leech - a poem that pulls no punches and what an ending.
